Yeah, I'm mostly just joking. I'm only 1-2 kyu but I played in the Alabama state chess championships a few times back 10-12 years ago. I do have the proud privilege of being Board 1 for the Alabama High School State Chess Champions in 2001. ![]() |

The tournament went well. We had about 10 people, and got good reviews of the tournament. We are making a club of about 10-15 people, and I plan on holding another tournament in July. |
